The Rebels marching on Paducah, Kentucky.
--A dispatch from Chicago, dated Sept. 30, says:‘ The rebels attempted to burn a bridge one mile from Norfolk this morning. They were met and repulsed by Captain Nolen's cavalry. Three rebels were killed by the first volley, and others killed and wounded afterwards. Only one Federal soldier was wounded.
A wounded rebel said that as death was sure, he might as well tell the truth. He stated that General Pillow was in Kentucky, back of Columbus, on Saturday, marching on Paducah, 27,000 strong, and that Jeff. Thompson's movements are only a feint to direct attention from that quarter. Information reached Paducah yesterday that General Pillow had left Columbus to effect a junction with the troops marching on Paducah from Tennessee. The united forces of the rebels will amount to 42,000.
